investigate — Alias for debug+
Redirects to /debug+ which wraps superpowers:systematic-debugging with scout
agent context harvesting. This alias exists for backward compatibility.
Procedure
Use /debug+ instead. It follows the same systematic debugging process:
- Reproduce the issue and capture output
- Use the scout agent when code exploration is needed
- Delegate to
superpowers:systematic-debugging - Report findings with evidence
- Issue reproduced and symptom documented
- Root cause identified with evidence
- Fix applied and tests pass
Skill Chain
Invoke /debug+ directly for the full skill. After resolving, return to your
current phase.
Completion
Report one of these states:
- DONE — Root cause identified and fix applied with passing tests.
- DONE_WITH_CONCERNS — Root cause identified but fix has side effects or needs review.
- BLOCKED — Cannot reproduce the issue or insufficient context to diagnose.
- NEEDS_CONTEXT — Need user input to reproduce the issue or understand expected behavior.
